Volunteer: Women Building Rhode Island Lead Trainer

About the Opportunity

Careers in the unionized construction industry are rewarding and challenging careers, yet women make up only approximately 3% of the construction trades workforce and 10% of Building Futures' pre-apprenticeship graduates. This position is an opportunity to change that. Building Futures is seeking an experienced tradesperson (journeyworker preferred) who is a skilled educator and teacher and who brings a deep understanding of the barriers women face in nontraditional occupations.

The Women Building Rhode Island (WBRI) Trainer will design and deliver a new hands-on apprenticeship readiness training in cross team collaboration at Building Futures that will encourage women to explore careers in building and construction, build physical and technical skills, and learn about industry culture before entrance to Building Futures' pre-apprenticeship program and placement in employment as a registered apprentice in one of many trades. Additionally, the Trainer will work in collaboration with the RI Women's Council of the Building and Construction Trades Council and with Building Futures' program alumnae to build the community of Rhode Island tradeswomen, provide skills-based and leadership development workshops, and collaborate with partners to ensure women have the tools, confidence, and networks they need to thrive and advance in their careers.


About Building Futures

Building Futures was founded in 2007 as a construction industry partnership focused on leveraging the Registered Apprenticeship model of workforce development. For over 100 years, unions and employers have jointly operated quality registered apprenticeships in construction occupations to train individuals as highly skilled tradespeople. Our work spans three distinct but highly aligned areas.

For the benefit of low-income Rhode Islanders, Building Futures developed and operates a comprehensive pre-apprenticeship program to prepare diverse, low-income men and women for success in employment as registered apprentices in the building trades. In addition, we work in partnership with a wide range of stakeholders to ensure construction projects provide apprenticeship opportunities at appropriate levels to meet future demand for skilled labor through our Apprentice Utilization Program. Our pre-apprenticeship and apprentice utilization programs provide an effective workforce development system in Rhode Island's construction sector.

From this foundation, we have established Apprenticeship Rhode Island, an initiative to expand the use of Registered Apprenticeship beyond the construction sector. Now, we are helping develop new registered apprenticeship programs in multiple sectors, including healthcare, information technology, advanced manufacturing, and marine trades. Working with employers, industry partnerships, government, and community-based organizations, we are spreading the proven model of Registered Apprenticeship to benefit the state's workforce and economy.

ABOUT THE COMMUNITY
 

Ranked #1 in Travel + Leisure Magazine’s 2014 America’s Favorite Cities Survey, praised by Architectural Digest as “The country’s best small city,” and named America’s Coolest City by GQ Magazine in 2015, Providence is the capital and most populous city in Rhode Island. Founded in 1636, it is one of the oldest cities in the United States and the third-largest city in the New England region after Boston and Worcester. Providence has a city population of 180,609 and is part of the Providence metropolitan area with an estimated population of 1,622,520. The region is considered part of the Greater Boston combined statistical area, the sixth largest in the country, with over eight million residents.

 

Once nicknamed the “Beehive of Industry,” Providence has rebranded itself as the “Creative Capital” to emphasize its educational resources (Brown University, Rhode Island School of Design, Providence College, Rhode Island College, Roger Williams University, and Johnson & Wales University) and arts community. Over the last twenty years, much of Providence has undergone a true civic renaissance, as political leaders and residents have propelled the city into an exciting place to work and live. City streets are packed with boutiques, hotels, renovated lofts, excellent restaurants, and art spaces.

 

In addition to being the home of Trinity Repertory Company, Providence has a remarkable arts and culture community that includes nationally renowned community arts center, AS220; the Rhode Island Philharmonic Orchestra; RISD Museum; Providence Athenaeum; Festival Ballet; and WaterFire. Providence is also home to several performing arts centers such as the Veterans Memorial Auditorium and the Providence Performing Arts Center, as well as a number of smaller theaters. The city’s music scene, centered on artist-run spaces, is well known in underground music circles.  

The restaurant scene in Providence is second to none and a source of immense pride for residents, as the city has been consistently recognized as a top city for food. Because of Rhode Island’s proximity to the ocean, many restaurants, grocery stores, and farmer’s markets boast food sourced from the state itself, giving real meaning to the phrase “farm-to-table” dining. From bakeries and coffee shops, to bars and food trucks, there is no shortage of fun, excellent, cutting-edge dining in the city.

Reports to: Street Team Coordinator
Compensation: $20/hour part-time independent contractor
Schedule: Two to three shifts/week; Mostly early mornings (~5am - 10am schedule); Approx 10-16 hours/week.





Calling all environmentally-passionate early birds! Do you care a little (or a lot) about extending the lifespan of our landfill, decreasing single-use-plastics, the circular economy, and reducing the taxes that Providence residents pay for waste disposal? Do you know a little (or a lot) about the household recycling guidelines for residents of the City of Providence? 


Zero Waste Providence (ZWP) is hiring Street Team Members to directly support our immediate effort of improving recycling behaviors in Providence. Street Team Members also may be asked to assist in educating residents about composting and sustainable household practices. Multilingual/bilingual applicants are encouraged. It’s a great fit for those interested in environmental justice, zero waste, and building a healthier Providence.


The Street Team aims to increase household participation in landfill diversion systems such as municipal curbside recycling and residential composting. This paid role includes training, fieldwork, and team-based community outreach such as curbside cart inspections, door-to-door canvassing, and event engagement. Street Team Members promote the household behavior changes that will increase landfill diversion and decrease recycling contamination, benefiting the economy, environment, and quality of life in Providence. 


Qualifications & Expectations:

Interest in environmental justice, sustainability, recycling, composting, or community building;

No formal experience necessary — paid training is provided;

Able to walk outdoors and canvass for up to 6 hours; 

Comfortable speaking clearly and respectfully with a wide range of residents; 

Comfortable recording data using mobile app tech (training provided); 

Ability to track and submit your own hours using our provided template; 

Open to giving and receiving feedback to improve outreach efforts. 


Basic Responsibilities:

Complete a half-day paid training and participate in field trips and ongoing refreshers; 

Conduct curbside recycling cart inspections using our mobile canvassing app; 

Leave informational literature for residents; 

Attend scheduled events on time, and RSVP using the shared Google calendar system; 

Reliable transportation is a must, as the early morning start time of this job is before RIPTA bus service begins. 


Additional Opportunities (for those who qualify):

Canvass to offer guidance to residents who contaminate about reducing contamination and improving recycling habits (work includes: speaking clearly and confidently, walking or standing up to 6 hours); 

Tabling at community spaces (e.g., parks, libraries, farmers markets, block parties); 

Advancement opportunities are available for qualified Street Team Members; 

ZWP is a growing organization and we hope to offer more part time and full time positions in the future. 





To apply, please send a brief email expressing your interest with the subject line “Street Team Application” and your resume to admin@zerowasteprovidence.com. Applications will be reviewed as we receive them. Multiple Street Team positions will be filled this October. Applications accepted through Oct 10, 2025.
